Answer 1

what is your exact question

Answer 2

Answer:

In one dimensional elastic collision between two bodies, the energy transfer is maximum, when there masses are equal because, the mass of a body determines how impact or thrust it is going to provide, on the object it is hitting.

Explanation:

When there are two bodies, with similar masses colliding with each other, then in that case the transfer of energy form both the bodies are near about equal, and according to newtons third law, both object will get a back thrust from there colliding object, causing maximum energy transfer, at that instance of time.
